Trying to play Monster Hunter: Rise and SOMEONE could not stand not getting attention and was repeatedly scaling me with her sharp feet and launching herself from furniture until I put her big soft blanket in my lap and pet her.
At least she’s sitting where I can see the screen. She’s also sitting where she can bite my fingers while I play. The monhunt experience was not supposed to be this realistic…
i know a lot of people mock when certain songs are overused on character playlists but I will never judge someone for putting bubblegum bitch on one. If you decided that your little tv guy is miss sugar pink liquor liquor lips who am I to say he’s not
the interesting thing about the protests in Hong Kong is they’ve taken on a life of their own as the illusion of government control of the situation has been punctured by the sheer number of people on the streets; the original goal of pushing back the extradition law has already been achieved, now the protests are against police brutality and are being countered with… more police brutality, sustaining the rage.
but it’s difficult to see how the government can back down on this one; presumably they would try to wait out the protests and announce some kind of placeholder investigation into police behaviour run by a sympathetic bureaucrat who is going to deliver a vague waffling report in 18 months by which time everything will have long blown over, but if the protests dig in and push for Lam to step down then things get messy.
can Beijing stomach pulling Lam out? blame the problems on her without conceding any ground to the public action? it just doesn’t seem like something they would be willing to do, it’s too obviously allowing public unrest to challenge top down leadership, and where would it end?
IF YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA OR KNOW PEOPLE THAT DO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CONTACT YOUR LEGISLATOR AND MAKE NOISE !
On monday there will be a vote on a dangerous bill called AB3080, which is an age verification bill,and, you guessed it, they see lgbt content as obscene and harmful to minors.
There are also tech companies residing in California,and who knows how they will be impacted.
So please take the time to take actions right here (theres a script you can take info from, its more than a privacy risk since a website makes it forbidden to operate without requesting ID from visitors…
He is also Palestinian. I hadn’t seen the video from this angle yet but I suspected from the one I saw that he was targeted based on how directly the cops came at him among many others. Now from this angle you can see the cop point at him directly and then they attack. Fuck STLPD fuck WUPD fuck mayor jones and fuck chancellor Martin
From a friend at the WashU encampment. There was lots of screaming plus there were kids around.
vegans making honey a bee labour issue is the funniest thing imaginable because like, you picked the one animal that has already unionised
You literally could not exploit bees if you TRIED
“Oh well if you stop the queen leaving the bees are trapped” wrong, bees can and will swarm without a queen. They will also make new queens if they don’t think theirs is good enough
“Bees don’t consent to their honey being taken” wrong, bees are actually more than intelligent enough to know we take the honey. They LET us take the honey if they think what we provide in return (shelter, food, protection) is a fair deal.
“Taking honey starves the bees” WRONG AGAIN! Domestic bees overproduce honey. A beekeeper NEVER takes honey the bees would need because then you piss off the bees, and if you piss off the bees you don’t have any bees. They stockpile honey for the winter, but because domestic colonies do way better than wild ones they stockpile too much. That’s why beekeepers can take out whole frames and then have them filled in no time. Domestic bees actively overproduce because they know humans are going to skim some off the top.
And if they didn’t want humans to take it, beekeeping WOULD NOT work.
To keep bees you have to let them fly free. If they can fly free they can leave. Meaning if they don’t like what you’re doing, they WILL leave.
The whole idea they’re basically slaves to the queen is also not true, they can just make a new queen literally whenever, and if they don’t like her, they kill her.
There is no way for a beekeeper to exploit their bees. The bees are EMPLOYEES.

I was so flummoxed by this I had to learn more, so I took to Google, where I found this blog post by Dan Cardone, who was a grip on this film. Some highlights:
This was the first set I had been on that featured three directors, and hopefully the last. One director was there to primarily film the sex scenes, which he did effectively and economically. The other two directors handled what is called in porn-lingo ‘B-Roll’, i.e. everything non sexual. Which on this film was substantial. The plot for To The Last Man involves two ranches populated entirely by horny men who have random sex and feud over water, as they are in the middle of a crippling drought. Which is why we filmed in Arizona during thunderstorm season…
It’s amazing no one got killed, or seriously injured. There was horse riding, there were fight scenes of rocky escarpments, there were drownings. When the real guns and live ammunition came out for a scene I thought, “That’s it, I’m going back to the truck”.
Fortunately, one of the models was also a fully qualified nurse, so that saved money, time and also lives. Plus, he was sexy, so it was win/win.
All this talk and no one posts a link. God damn it, have to do everything myself around here! Here’s the promo page with previews and a purchase link from the actual Raging Stallions Studios website.

Okay guys I get learning new things is important but I do not have the time to read 100 different posts and essays about a topic. My opinion on things is “I don’t know” until further notice.
I’m just some guy and the way y’all expect me to know every little thing and have opinions on everything is strange!
this post seems to have broken containment and if anyone’s interested in what they were telling me to stop, i found the og post with this song and was mass reblogging it at an alarming rate. ive done this multiple times but i think this was the instance i reblogged it 64 times in a row
AN ambitious $59 billion project to link Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney by very fast train is at the top of a Federal Government wish list for road and rail projects.

So, there’s a lot of USians around who are very clearly fucking fed up with their political choices this election cycle, and planning to sit it out.
And I get it! What’s the point of voting if there’s no one to vote for?
The thing is, I’m Australian. In Australia, voting is compulsory. We don’t get to sit out our elections, and I’ll be real honest with you - we don’t exactly get better choices than you lot. So how do you vote if there’s no one to vote for? You find someone to vote against. And there’s always someone to vote against.
Now, we have the pleasure of preferential voting in Australia - We get to rank every candidate from 1 to X, and I’ll tell you, there’s something so cathartic about putting the biggest bastard of the lot at the very bottom of your preferences. I understand that USians don’t get that option - you get to mark one person, and that’s it.
That means that you get one shot, so aim it at the biggest bastard of the lot. The candidate you most utterly detest. Put your vote in the worst possible place for them. Don’t even think about who that vote’s going towards, that’s not the point. Remember, every vote is a vote against someone. Make sure you fuck up that someone’s election day!

not fair that the cuntiest woman in this world is a muppet (ms. piggy)
visual aid if it was even nessesary
Hello, enjoyers and agreers of this post! The outfit in this picture was most likely designed and styled by Callista Hendrickson, whose entire job it was to make sure Miss Piggy served at all times. Here is a podcast in which she is interviewed by Danny Horn, Pope of Caring About Miss Piggy since at least 1992, founder of MuppetZine and @toughpigs
some ppl want to support palestine without aligning themselves with the anti-colonial movement and it shows
obviously condemning genocide is the decent, principled thing to do but it’s not in spite of politics… there are political reasons why the genocide is being committed and political reasons behind how and why is//rael as a state was established and political reasons why people are protesting. and its to do with colonial violence and decolonisation, which protestors and colonised ppl themselves have made abundantly clear. you can’t condemn the genocide without condemning the settler colonial ideology that supports it
